2. October 2025 - I just moved from github to codeberg. That is because of multiple reasons where just moving away from microsoft is one, that it's hosted in europe is another. But the thing that's maybe the most important is that microsoft reacently moved github under the AI department. That was all for now.
03. October 2025 -The adventure to move away from relying on computers is fun, and now I've grown more comfortable with my typewritter, but I have one major issue. How should i scan documents so that i can send them as .pdf files? Right now I'm using google drive (I know) as it's the only service on my phone that supports scanning and making pdfs from a document.
Part 2, I have now made a working kernel with core utils and some other software that i pciked out, but i did not like how it was and the bootloader (syslinux), so i will start over on this and maybe try with the lts kernel instead of using the latest one. Also some of the software i had in the install image should be optinal, insted of baked in, so the image shouldnt be too large in size. Will restart on this tomorrow, sunday or on monday.
04. October 2025 -Today I have not done much, but I have thought some more about it and have come to the conclusion that i should just do it all over again and not think much of what I did yesterday. I may wait to the next weekend before i set up LFS or something simular again. On another note there have been some minor problems as someone in the next room have been needing it to be quiet, and therefor I could not write and use my typewriter as I normally do. I have also thought about if I should migrate some of my discussion away from discord and maybe matrix to IRC, as I do enjoy it more and one can be more anynomus there than on the platforms I use today. This was a small update on my quest for true freedom on the web and with using a compute.
Part 2 again, I updated my tmux config to make it fit me more, so added session name insted of username to the left, changed the bordercolour from the active opane to magenta and the inactive to cyan. I also changed my neovim configuration file where i merged some lines and functions into one line insted of 5, added some comments to it and got it down to 125 lines in the init.lua file.
5. October 2025 -I have not done anything worth noting since yesterday, but I do have something i would like to get off my mind. Lately I've seen more and more about the arch linux setup or window manager setup "Omarchy", and because of that I myself have looked slightly into it even if I would never use it myself as it's smart to at least see what others do and what they like, to see if there is anything I could improve in my setup or if I should look more into that said other setup that mine. But, as omarchy come into the popular view another issue has come forwards, and that's DHHs political views that I myself seem unacsaptable. One article that can explain this better than me is this one, where you can read more indepth around this issue. I will bring the main thing forwards, as many have other thougfhts than me and you we must tolerate that, but when someone says that a city and country is unrecognisable and that he would never even consider visiting because a part of the population is of another ethnisity and have a diffrent colour of their skin I will not support or say much good about their products. I myself do like to think that I have standrads, and hyprland in of itself is too far for me, but with omarchy and this remark from DHH it's at a point where I would like to just say it, don't use it.
As a small sidenote, i just figured out that codeberg doesn't use javascript, or at least that it isn't needed, so i can use the website and browse on my tinkpad in the TTY in w3m. Thanks a lot, i will now not be depending on my gui computers at all times, but can also use my favourite one.
6. October 2025 - Today I've not done much, but something I have been doing is checking out oxwm and nwm by xsoder, both of wich run on around 10mb ram and are x11 window managers, where Tonay have said that he wants to port oxwm to wayland in the distant future. As of the time I'm writing this I'm leaning in the direction of oxwm, but not 100% sure yet. It has a nice bar built-in and has more features, and is simular to dwm in m,any ways, as he himself wanted a 'better DWM'. I will keep Niri for wayland usage, but when I get back home I belive that I will switch my daily WM to oxwm, as it's way lighter, has eveything I want in it and I can support someone that I want to continue doing his work on the tools he creates and his videos. -- A little side-note, a friend of mine installed nixos today, and I'm excited to see how he does. Of course I hope he stays, but there is a large chance that he goes back to opensuse, but we can hope he doesnt. That was all for today.
7. October 2025 - I have started to try to learn some more about Git today, and will create a part in the rgfzf script to be able to handle the most used git commands and actions through that. So as of right now I can add files, commit them with messages and push the reposetory change. This will be expanded as I feel the need for it, and I will try to learn to use git fugetive plugin for neovim and maybe a tui tool like lazygit if I feel that the rgfzf script is not enough. I have not done much today, but it is a start. I also want to add to the linux distro thing I've hinted about, this will be set on pause til I've made all the tools I want around this distro, so eveything else for it must be in place first, and after that I can continue on that.
8. October 2025 - I have now bought an old Acer Aspire x3200 to set up an server. This is as I need a pc to have in case, as a backup and to run a small server as I want to host an IRC for me and my friends, and maybe one for more as well, that will have to wait and see. This is an old pc, but has a 86x 64bit cpu dual core, 2GB ram and two sata slots, and with both HDMI and VGA. I can slighly upgrade this PC later on if i feel like it and I like the case, so that can be reused in the future. As a start I will set up an IRC server I and a friend can test, then invite some more as I go. And a small fun thing is that I know the seller, but didn't find out before I had decided to buy it.
9. October 2025 - Today I've used the day to travel, so not done much. I got the server machine to its place and took off the side panel. Some cleaning has started, and I now have to find/buy a sata 3,5 hdd or a sata ssd, where the newer ones will not work. That was all.
10. October 2025 - I have now started a really simple emacs configuration. My goal is to maybe switch to guix to get the full emacs and GNU life.
11. October 2025 - Since uyesterday I've configured my Emacs. I now have a full evil mode, an easy way for file management, and as I saw Tsoding I wanted to see what he had, so I watched his setting up Emacs on a new laptop video, and there I got some ideas, like IDO and some more. I have written some in a declerative matter, and you may check it out on codeberg, where the .emacs file lays under the HOME directory.
12. October 2025 - Today I've not done much, but I have rewritten my .bashrc file and migrated back after half a year on zsh. The plugins I had for zsh are all replaced by the "fzf --bash" options, like inbuilt cd, fuzzy history search and file search. I will try to implement a command fuzzy complete.
13. October 2025 - I've updated and reorganised some in the init.lua and in the rgfzf script. This will be the only update here between monday and thursday as I will be gone.
18. October 2025 - After a few days gone I've come back, and today I've been working on a small colourscheme for myself for vim/nvim, where all the base colours are set and it works and can be used as my main colourscheme now. I will add or change it as I go, but for lua, bash and markdown it's more than enough. I want a colourscheme that isn't too bright, one that is not a rainbow, but rather one that highlights the important parts and have the same colours repeat many times over as that creats a illusion of harmony for me. And as someone once said, if you focus on eveything you focus on nothing, so 90% of the text is one of two colours, where the main colour is white and thge secoundary is cyan, cyan for variables etc. I will try to limit the use of too many colours, and rather use 'bold' 'italic' and 'underline' insted to highlight something. Red is also a colour reserved for errors and the most important things. The colourscheme is open for change and it probably will change some, or at least get stuff added to it as I see fit. As of right now it's in my codeberg for dotfiles, at configs/oldvim/scheme.vim and is 100% vimscript.
19. October 2025 - As I'm writing this on my phone it will be short. I changed and made my vim colourscheme better and softened it some and added a git repo for it (at https://codeberg.org/trondelagcutie/CuteScheme) and made it so you can enable it with :colorscheme cutevim. after that i added fuzzy searching for commands in the commandline.
20. October 2025 - Over the last few weeks I've worked on my neovim configuration and some of my other tools that I use on a daily basis, and I belive I've taken yet another step into making it truly good now. As I've said I made my own colourscheme that is being tweaked some times when I see something I don't like. An example is how I want to implement some more yellow, but that is not something I've decided on yet. You can find it at this place and the goal is to highlight the few most important parts of the code I'm working at to make it faster to find what I need. And as I worked on this I thought, why stop here? So I (with a lot of help and inspiration) managed to remove all but two of my plugins. The CMP ones were just unnececary and I could just remove them, I'm still not 100% used to it yet, but it's manageble, and I find that I actually write more myslf and have stopped looking too much on the distracting popup it has. Now, autopair was just a bad habit, so I removed it to make myself write it myself and not rely on it. The hardest part was of course my file picker, I asked some on a community where we could speak about neovim, and a great guy had something he used, a full fledget file picker (with some stuff that's not needed for me so I removed that) in like 200 lines of lua that uses fd and fzf directly into neovim, and not like fzf.vim or fzflua which both are thousands of lines long. This was something I could justify reading and using. So now i have a file picker that's custumisable in the init.lua file that does eveything i need it to, and as a extra it works more like how I want it to and the buffer picker is better as well. I've also started to use a floating terminal insted of making a tmux pane or a tmux popup as this way just feels better and easier to actually manage like a normal terminal. All of this may be seen at my codeberg.
24. October 2025 - I have now fixed autocompletion to LSP suggestions, enabled autoformating from the LSP on save and a keybind to enable inline hints from the lsp. There have come some new images on the codeberg and some other smaller improvements.
26. October 2025 - Today I've added some stuff for quicklists to my init.lua, as i found that useful a few days ago.
28. October 2025 - I have now fragmented and gathered eveything related to each other inb a way in one file each, so lsp is one file, colourscheme is one, completion in one and qflist in pone etc. This is not for the init.lua, but rather for the development and maintence, then i gather them all into one init.lua file after I've done my changes etc. May do a cat "files" > init.lua, but that sounds like a horrible idea, could make a simple bash script to gather and combine it, have multiple files or manually change and add it.
Part 2 -- I have now restructured the init.lua file, or rather named final.lua in the codeberg repo in the neovim directory. It is all sorted out from which file it is in the fragmented maintainer part. Will continue making qflists and improving stuff overall.
3. November - Since the last update I've done some simple work on my init.lua. The main thing was changes to how i have diagnostics displayed and a signcolumn change to show more things than just errors. I've also started work on a small note taking syntax for myself, and may become a part in the future, or a seperate thing one coukd try. I will try to simplify the colourscheme for languages like html, as now it looks horrible. I belive so and because of that I'm not satisfied. - I've also started to slowly remove treesitter from my workflow, and soon I think I will just remove it as I've grown attacjed to the regex highlighting, and neovim and vim has good enough indenting withouth it, and if it's abselutly nececacry i can use the builtin treesitter and manually install the parsers. This will make me less dependent on an external tool, and then only fzf and fd is needed for how it is now. Will replace fd with find soon.
5. November 2025 - I have now fixed some diagnostic signs, signcolumn jumping and removed the language specific things from the colourscheme as I do not want anything but base vim/nvim highlighting groups and regex highlighting. Most languages are linked correctly to the proper groups, so that is a cut i did. Some colours are brightend, like the dark blue and green for their lighter counterparts as it fits better with everything else. - Now, the thing i will maybe work more on now, I've added a cn.vim file in the CuteScheme repo under a syntax directory as I'm working on making my own note taking syntax and highlighting. This is simple regex and just some important points for now, but this will improve with time. It's name is CuteNotes as all of my neovim and linux related things all start with Cute, and its for notes, so .cn files.
21. November 2025 - Its been a while. I have done a lot since the last update, but now, my current project. I and Kaiser Willhelm of Croatia have started on something like omarchy. As I've stated earlier I'm not a fan of DHH, but I do like how omarchy is to set up. So the goal is an installer for a distro with an iso, this may also just be a calamaries installer or an archinstall profile we provide, but for now its an post install script that sets everything up and so you may just start using the computer with a pre defined configs, the Holy configs. This project is called HolyX and may be found on my codeberg. All software must be open source if we are going to use it and no 'voodoo'. Right now we just got out of planning stage, and this is just a fun side project, so it will take a lot of time before it's done. Some things we wish to add is an automatical updateer for the files that is toggleable, as I stated, an ISO, will be arch based as thats easy and doesnt come with a lot of bloat and some TUIs for the install. The name comes from the goal to have a truly blessed setup, and the X is from us wanting to use xorg as that is indeed the holiest of the options we have. We also want to keep the bash installer as it should be run and play on other distros as well, like gentoo, alpine, debian or fedora.
